    What the Bolsheviks talked about for so long, of which, by our standards, in 2008, couldn’t happen, it happened.

    Wikipedia is already blocked. Why? We look at the website of the department .

    Unsubscribe, friends, who are also blocked already.

    The author of the article (provider - dom.ru) is already blocking (using replacement methods, but this is already the "norm of life").

    And the question is not a proxy, not some kind of workaround. Why does the Internet, for which we pay, turn into https spoofing pages instead of, say, an article about Stephen Hawking?

    upd: Ironically, Wikipedia's recommendations on what to do if this happens are blocked for me too. They are here .

    upd2: Instructions how to use it (download wikipedia for yourself). It will be useful to Wikipedia editors since anonymizers generate "distrust of the user" on the part of Wikipedia.

    upd3: In the comments, there are a number of links that are Wikipedia's workarounds.

    upd4: August dumps on Wikipedia. Recall 451 Fahrenheit, download.

    upd5: According to some sourcesaccess is restored.

    upd6: The name of the post has been corrected in order to correspond to the meaning of what is happening. Wikipedia is blocked, and not she herself. Thanks to the user Kipriz for the idea.

    upd7: According to information from Roskomnadzor itself, the site has been removed from the registry of banned sites.
